This is not just a response to your issue, but to the other remote concepts raised. Do we really need to discuss the idea of an ADU being built in the parking lot of a multi-family building? Is there any real probability that a three bedroom condominium unit might be split into two-units with one considered an ADU?

Our Counsel opined that only one Protected Use ADU per legal lot can be established, so if the condo was on one lot and had 20 units, only one ADU would be permitted. Of course, the Condo R&Rs would need some level of specificity (likely lacking now) that would facilitate how that could be done.
